ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH SOLDER COLUMNS

摘要

An electrical connector is provided for mating with an electrical component. The connector includes a substrate having a mating side, and a solder column extending from the mating side of the substrate. The solder column includes a base that is engaged with the substrate. The solder column extends a length away from the mating side of the substrate to a tip. The tip includes a contact surface that is configured to engage and electrically connect to an electrical contact of the electrical component. The solder column is linearly tapered along at least a portion of the length from the base to the tip.
